Fixed. Found the uninstaller app. Sure would have been great if I had been pointed there in the first place.

I used the disc image file named above, provided by KAV downloads page: kavmac20.0.0.829ar_en_es_fr_pt_ru_tr_19087 "imo" - Are you saying you do not know if 'kaspersky_iswift_journal' is a KAV file or not? That you just have an opinion that it is not? Researching is showing me I am not the only one seeing this. Since I'm not getting any real help/insight here I guess I'm on my own with DuckDuckGo.

Two in fact. Are you suggesting I do an entire restore? Sure would be easier to simply resolve the issue. I assume there is a resolution.

Oooops. Was too early in the morning to be responsible! I have deleted that file three times. It is created again at restart of system. But there is nothing else of Kaspersky on the drive. Visible nor invisible. At any level. With any permissions level. Something else remains not named Kaspersky that is creating this file? macOS 10.14.6 unsure of KAV version as I've deleted it - was whatever Mac version downloaded a week ago downloaded install was named: kavmac20.0.0.829ar_en_es_fr_pt_ru_tr_19087

I am testing AntiVirus solutions. I have tried Kaspersky and am considering it. But I want to delete if rom my system and have done so, even every invisible file. But upon restart I have an invisible file at the root level. .com_kaspersky_iswift_journal The mere fact it is being created when everything else related to Kaspersky that I can find has been deleted is very troubling. I want it gone.
